The Blue Grit Team meets with Hardin County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Tom Lee and TMPA Field Rep. Leighton Guarnere to discuss Sgt. Lee's story of being shot...with a CROSSBOW. 

On June 20, 2019, Sgt. Lee was dispatched with a Spindletop Center crisis worker to a residence in the 30000 block of Old Sour Lake Road (in Hardin County) at about 10:45 a.m. after the mental health patient's family requested assistance from the mental health division at the sheriff’s office. While they were talking to the man, he came out of the residence armed with the crossbow and shot Sgt. Lee.

Sgt. Lee further discusses how he mentally dealt with the incident afterwards, and TMPA's response.
